Saving assets
When you save an asset, after changing any of its properties, you may overwrite the original
asset in the System Database. For this, you use the Save button:
Instead of overwriting an original asset, you may save a modified version as a separate asset.
You do this by using the Save Copy button to save a copy of the modified asset:
The new asset refers to the same media file as the original asset. (iTX does not duplicate the
media file for the new asset.)
